YouTube Video for Local Gay Rights March

On National Coming Out Day — October 11th — LGBT Memphians and straight allies will march from the National Civil Rights Museum (450 Mulberry St.) to City Hall (125 N. Main) in an effort to raise awareness about the need for equal rights, both locally and nationally.

The march will kick off at 3:30 p.m. and participants are encouraged to wear their work attire. Once the group arrives at City Hall, those who wish to stay will hold a peaceful demonstration. You can learn more at the MemphisLovesGays blog.
